THE COLOMBIAN

EDUCATIONAL
SYSTEM
ELITISM IN COLOMBIA

• Many people claim private, exclusive and expensive education,

encourage elitism and influence peddling.
• People with a better economy have more access to a better
education than low-income people.
• This should not surprise us but many Will deny this statement
SENA
• Low in-come people can
have Access to a
technical education
wich allows them to be
linked to a company.
THE DISADVANTAGES OF PUBLIC
UNIVERSITIES

•LITTLE OR NO INFRASTRUCTURE
•UNREMUNERATED PRACTICES
•SEATS ARE LIMITED
DISADVANTAG
ES OF PRIVATE
UNIVERSITIES

• The investment is very high

• If you apply for a loan in order to
go to a private university, you will
have to pay the interest and other
added expenses, in a certain time.
Even 30% of this loan must be paid
while you are studying, and 70%
once you have finished your
studies.
Poverty and unemployment in Colombia are caused by
factors such as education, political mismanagement of
resources, inequality, and the armed conflict.

More than 40% of recent graduates cannot find a job due to

lack of experience, in addition to competition, the lack of
job offers and the saturation of certain careers, are some of
the reasons for not getting a job.
